Need some help in a query

I have my select statement but I want to make order by 2 things(parameters) that the user choose.
I have my parameter as list of values where i have the constant value FIRSTNAME and the constant value DATE.
I have something like this
select * from TABLE1 as P,TABLE2 as AP
ORDER BY :CHOICE
I want that :CHOISE to be replaced by code(P.Fname,P.LName)
or by (AP.DATE).(depends on users selection)
How can i pass my order selection from a parameter????
Thanx

Hi,
Add user parameter P_ORDER_BY as character.
In the afterparamform trigger add this code:
:P_ORDER_BY := 'order by '||:choice;
In the data model replace ORDER BY :CHOICE with &P_ORDER_BY.
For more information pls read the help for lexical parameters.

Need some help with count query

Hello,
I'm terrible @ oracle, so bear with me. I am trying to use the count function with my query but it counts rows from different tables.
I want my query to basically add a column from another table but have it not be a part of the count.
Say, table1 table2 table3. My count is right between the first two tables (Buyers,5).But since in table3 there are duplicate values(or accounts in this case(3), the count multiples by that many (15).
I need it to read Buyers,5,account #. I've tried distinct and a union but to no avail.
Help me please.

If I understand you correctly, you want to count the records in table1 and table2 which have a one-to-one relationship, but you need to display additional data from table3 which has a one-to-many relationship. If this is correct, you need to use an in-line view to join table1 and table2 then join that in-line view to table3 to display the data from it. Something along the lines of:
SELECT v.col1, v.col2, v.col3, v.col4, v.cnt, t3.col1 t3col1, t3.col2 t3col2
FROM (SELECT t1.col1, t1.col2, t2.col1 col3, t2.col2 col4, COUNT(*) cnt
      FROM table1 t1, table2 t2
      WHERE <join conditions between t1 and t2> and
            <other conditions if required>
      GROUP BY t1.col1, t1.col2, t2.col1, t2.col2) v,
     table3 t3
WHERE <join conditions between v and t3>
      <other conditions if required>John

Need some help about a query

Hello,
I'm new to oracle DB.
Can someone help me with this query please?
I want a query which returns the details of all the DML and DDl queries performed on a database in a particular period of time like for example from that date to today.
Thank you..

All changes made to user data or to the data dictionary are recorded in the Oracle redo logs. Therefore, redo logs contain all the necessary information to perform recovery operations. Because redo log data is often kept in archived files, the data is already available.
Actually to do this you got to have DBA privileges.
You have to use oracle LOGMINER
Oracle Corporation provides SQL access to the redo logs through LogMiner, which is part of the Oracle database server. LogMiner presents the information in the redo logs through the V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS fixed view. This view contains historical information about changes made to the database
Please refer the following link to get more details on the same.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96521/logminer.htm
Hope this helps :)

Need some help formulating a query

I need to formulate a query to list the branch number, branch name, revenue_target, and the revenue_generated for each branch that fails to meet its revenue_target where the revenue_generated by a branch is the sum of the total amount of all orders for salespersons working at that branch.

Here are the tables that I am presented with: ...Whenever you have a problem, please post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for your sample data, and the final results you want to get from that data.
Explain how you get those results from that data, with specific examples, such as "Branch b1 is included in the results because its revenue_target (which I can get from this query ...) is x, but the order total (which I can see from this query ...) is y, which is less than x. Branch b2 is not included because ..."
Always say which version of Oracle you're using
... I can write the queries to get the TOTAL_AMOUNT_FOR_ORDERS, TOTAL_AMOUNT_FOR_INSTALLATIONS, and BRANCHNUMBER, BRANCHNAME, REVENUETARGET. But I can't seem to put them all together.Thanks for posting these, but without CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for your sample data, nobody can run them.
I don't think you need a FUL OUTER JOIN. If all you need is a grand total, UNION ALL would be more efficient.

Need some help over sql query format

Input :
TABLE 1 ppl

2 andy
3 john
TABLE 2 fa_ppl
id attr_name attr_value
1 watch Guess
1 laptop Sony
2 fashion casual
2 laptop Dell
3 watch fossil
3 fashion formal
OUTPUT Required:(3 rows)
name watch laptop fashion
ravi guess sony NULL
andy NULL dell casual
john fossil NULL formal
SQL Statements that may help in schema objects:
create table ppl(id number,name varchar2(50));
create table fa_ppl(id number,attr_name varchar2(20), attr_value varchar2(20));
insert into ppl values(1,'ravi');
insert into ppl values(2,'andy');
insert into ppl values(3,'john');
insert into fa_ppl values(1,'laptop','sony');
insert into fa_ppl values(1,'watch','guess');
insert into fa_ppl values(2,'laptop','dell');
insert into fa_ppl values(2,'fashion','casual');
insert into fa_ppl values(3,'fashion','formal');
insert into fa_ppl values(3,'watch','fossil');
I tried in the below way:
Select P.name,
case when attr_name='fashion' then attr_value end as fashion ,
case when attr_name='laptop' then attr_value end as laptop,
case when attr_name='watch' then attr_value end as watch,
from ppl P join fa_ppl F on (P.id=F.id and F.attr_name in ('fashion','laptop','watch'))
PROBLEM:
Getting separate rows(6 rows in my case) for each attribute_value.
Thanks a lot.....

What you are trying is a pivot. There is a [url https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2174552#9360005]thread in the FAQ linking to various methods.
You are actually pretty close, if you just do a group by on your select:
Select P.name,
max(case when attr_name='fashion' then attr_value end) as fashion ,
max(case when attr_name='laptop' then attr_value end) as laptop,
max(case when attr_name='watch' then attr_value end) as watch
from ppl P join fa_ppl F on (P.id=F.id and F.attr_name in ('fashion','laptop','watch'))
group by
p.nameBut if you have several people with same name, you probably want to do this:
Select
p.id, /*you may omit this column if you do not need it*/
max(P.name) as name,
max(case when attr_name='fashion' then attr_value end) as fashion ,
max(case when attr_name='laptop' then attr_value end) as laptop,
max(case when attr_name='watch' then attr_value end) as watch
from ppl P join fa_ppl F on (P.id=F.id and F.attr_name in ('fashion','laptop','watch'))
group by
p.idSimilar can be done in 11G with the PIVOT statement. See the links in the FAQ thread.

I had created a Z table with the following fields :
ZADS :
MANDT
VKORG
ABGRU.
I had written a select query as below :
select single vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
IT_REJ is a Work area:
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
        VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
        ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
       END OF IT_REJ.
This is causing performance issue. They are asking me to include the where condition for this select query.
What should be my select query here?
Please suggest....
Any suggestion will be apprecaiated!
Regards,
Developer

Hello Everybody!
Thank you for all your response!
I had changes this work area into Internal table and changed the select query. PLease let me know if this causes any performance issues?
I had created a Z table with the following fields :
ZADS :
MANDT
VKORG
ABGRU.
I had written a select query as below :
I had removed the select single and insted of using the Structure it_rej, I had changed it into Internal table
select vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
Earlier :
IT_REJ is a Work area:
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
END OF IT_REJ.
Now :
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ occurs 0,
VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
END OF IT_REJ.
I guess this will fix the issue correct?
PLease suggest!

We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help

Greetings all -
We have a set of oracle clients running on T5220 zones that need some help.
If, for example, I execute the query "select (all) from dba_objects", trace output reports 90% of the elapsed time spent under "SQLNet message from client".
Here are OS details for the clients: Solaris 10 5/08 s10s_u5wos_10 SPARC
Running "uname -a" from the client gives:
(SunOS bmc-ste-app 5.10 Generic_127127-11 sun4v sparc SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220)
Here are OS details for the dataserver: Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2
Running "uname -a" from the dataserver gives:
(2.6.18-92.1.6.0.2.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jun 26 17:44:55 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
The RDBMS is 10.2.0.4
Again, please note, there is no application in the picture here. We are just running a simple catalog query (select * from dba_objects) from sqlplus. Why the wait on something like this? The wait also occurs when a different query is used (select (all) from SYS.COL$ where rownum < 50000). And it doesn't matter if I used the full client or the instant client. I still get the same high-wait.
We had thought - maybe this is a network thing - so we put a test client on the same subnet as the dataserver. This helped - but not enough. The wait is still way too high even with firewalls taken out of the equation.
We've also looked at arraysize, SDU, kernel settings. And we've spent time going over tkprof, truss and sqlnet-tracing.
Has anyone ever had to solve this HIGH WAIT ON CLIENT issue? Is there a work around or some tweak I'm missing.
Is anyone configured like we are (linux dataserver, solaris clients)? If so - did you see anything like this?
tia -
Jim

Hello,
We have the exact same issue. Did you ever solve this issue? We have a t5220 and have just upgraded our 11.5.10.2 11i system on it from 9.2.0.8 32-bit sparc to 11.2.0.1 64-bit sparc. Things should be faster but arent, and our consultant has tracked it down to high wait times when the apps tier using forms connects to the database tier on the same box. So even though the t5220 is both server and client, there is something about the client sql connection.through TNS that his having trouble. Thanks for any information. We've also created an S/R with Oracle.
Note: I am well aware of the other issues with the CMT server series but this particular issue seems independent of the regular / known issues and remains a mystery to us. Other known issues with the CMT servers for SPARC:

If you're trying to restore your ipod (as it's not quite clear in your query) try doing it through itunes instead of on the device itself

Need some help understanding the way materialized views are applied through

Hi, I need some help understanding the way materialized views are applied through adpatch.
In patch 1, we have a mv with build mode immediate. When applying it PTS hang due to pool performance of mv refresh.
So we provide patch 2, with that mv build mode deferred, hoping it'll go through. But patch 2 hang too on the same mv.
How does this work? Is that because mv already exists in the database with build immediate, patch 2 will force it to refresh first before changing build mode? How to get over this?
Thanks,
Wei

Hi Hussein,
Thank you for the response.
Application release is 11.5.10.
Patch 1 is MSC11510: 8639586 ASCP ENGINE RUP#38 PATCH FOR 11.5.10 BRANCH
Patch 2 is MSC11510: 9001833 APCC MSC_PHUB_CUSTOMERS_MV WORKER IS STUCK ON "DB FILE SEQUENTIAL READ" 12 HOURS
The MV is APPS.MSC_PHUB_CUSTOMERS_MV
This happens at customer environment but not reproducable in our internal environment, as our testing data is much smaller.
Taking closer look in the logs, I saw actually when applying both patch 1 and patch 2, MV doesn't exist in the database. So seems my previous assumption is wrong. Still, strange that patch 2 contains only one file which is the MV.xdf, it took 7 hours and finally got killed.

Remote App on iPad connects but drops after about 20 mins. Need to turn off wait about 1 minute, then turn on wifi on iMac before it can reconnect. Need some help please.
Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Try moving the existing backup file to a safe location so that iTunes has to create an entire new file. The backup file is located here. You can delete that backup once you get a successfull backup.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

Need some help in creating Search Help for standard screen/field

I need some help in adding a search-help to a standard screen-field.
Transaction Code - PP01,
Plan Version - Current Plan (PLVAR = '01'),
Object Type - Position ( OTYPE = 'S'),
Click on Infotype Name - Object ( Infotype 1000) and Create.
I need to add search help to fields Object Abbr (P1000-SHORT) / Object Name (P1000-STEXT).
I want to create one custom table with fields, Position Abb, Position Name, Job. Position Abb should be Primary Key. And when object type is Position (S), I should be able to press F4 for Object Abb/Object Name fields and should return Position Abbr and Position Name.
I specify again, I have to add a new search help to standard screen/field and not to enhance it.
This is HR specific transaction. If someone has done similar thing with some other transation, please let me know.
There is no existing search help for these fields. If sm1 ever tried or has an idea how to add new search help to a standard screen/field.
It's urgent.

A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
During the input help process, a number of timepoints are defined that each define the beginning of an important operation of the input help process.
If the input help process is defined with a search help having a search help exit, this search help exit is called at each of these timepoints. If required, the search help exit can also influence the process and even determine that the process should be continued at a different timepoint.
timepoints
The following timepoints are defined:
1. SELONE
Call before selecting an elementary search help. The possible elementary search helps are already in SHLP_TAB. This timepoint can be used in a search help exit of a collective search help to restrict the selection possibilities for the elementary search helps.
Entries that are deleted from SHLP_TAB in this step are not offered in the elementary search help selection. If there is only one entry remaining in SHLP_TAB, the dialog box for selecting elementary search helps is skipped. You may not change the next timepoint.
The timepoint is not accessed again if another elementary search help is to be selected during the dialog.
2. PRESEL1
After selecting an elementary search help. Table INTERFACE has not yet been copied to table SELOPT at this timepoint in the definition of the search help (type SHLP_DESCR_T). This means that you can still influence the attachment of the search help to the screen here. (Table INTERFACE contains the information about how the search help parameters are related to the screen fields).
3. PRESEL
Before sending the dialog box for restricting values. This timepoint is suitable for predefining the value restriction or for completely suppressing or copying the dialog.
4. SELECT
Before selecting the values. If you do not want the default selection, you should copy this timepoint with a search help exit. DISP should be set as the next timepoint.
5. DISP
Before displaying the hit list. This timepoint is suitable for restricting the values to be displayed, e.g. depending on authorizations.
6. RETURN (usually as return value for the next timepoint)
The RETURN timepoint should be returned as the next step if a single hit was selected in a search help exit.
It can make sense to change the F4 flow at this timepoint if control of the process sequence of the Transaction should depend on the selected value (typical example: setting SET/GET parameters). However, you should note that the process will then depend on whether a value was entered manually or with an input help.
7. RETTOP
You only go to this timepoint if the input help is controlled by a collective search help. It directly follows the timepoint RETURN. The search help exit of the collective search help, however, is called at timepoint RETTOP.
8. EXIT (only for return as next timepoint)
The EXIT timepoint should be returned as the next step if the user had the opportunity to terminate the dialog within the search help exit.
9. CREATE
The CREATE timepoint is only accessed if the user selects the function "Create new values". This function is only available if field CUSTTAB of the control string CALLCONTROL was given a value not equal to SPACE earlier on.
The name of the (customizing) table to be maintained is normally entered there. The next step returned after CREATE should be SELECT so that the newly entered value can be selected and then displayed.
10. APP1, APP2, APP3
If further pushbuttons are introduced in the hit list with function module F4UT_LIST_EXIT, these timepoints are introduced. They are accessed when the user presses the corresponding pushbutton.
Note: If the F4 help is controlled by a collective search help, the search help exit of the collective search help is called at timepoints SELONE and RETTOP. (RETTOP only if the user selects a value.) At all other timepoints the search help exit of the selected elementary search help is called.
If the F4 help is controlled by an elementary search help, timepoint RETTOP is not executed. The search help exit of the elementary search help is called at timepoint SELONE (at the
F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE
This module has been created as an example for the interface and design of Search help exits in Search help.
All the interface parameters defined here are mandatory for a function module to be used as a search help exit, because the calling program does not know which parameters are actually used internally.
A search help exit is called repeatedly in connection with several
events during the F4 process. The relevant step of the process is passed on in the CALLCONTROL step. If the module is intended to perform only a few modifications before the step, CALLCONTROL-STEP should remain unchanged.
However, if the step is performed completely by the module, the following step must be returned in CALLCONTROL-STEP.
The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.
Hope this info will help you.
